Wait She s a Billionaire ( Sheena Lawson ) Chapter 493

Chapter 493

Sheila has attended various film festivals, walked numerous red carpets, and even participated as a prominent guest in various events. However, no man has ever voluntarily refused to hold her hand. during an entrance.

That suggestion was no doubt the greatest humiliation she ever faced.

Even so,

she hid Iter displeasure, quickly putting on a gracious smile as she replied, “Understood, Mr. Jenkins. Rest assured, I won’t make things difficult for you with Ms. Lawson.”

Elliot nodded and stepped out of the car with an air of cold arrogance.

Lionel promptly followed, going around to the other side to assist Sheila in opening the car door. The moment they appeared, they became the focal point of the entire venue, with camera flashes going off

around them.

Sheila effortlessly handled such situations, maintaining a dignified and elegant smile. As they entered side by side, they controlled the distance perfectly, not even grazing each other’s attire.

Throughout the subsequent socializing and interactions, Sheila behaved appropriately, maintaining a respectable distance. Consequently, Elliot’s guard against her eased slightly.

Sheena had entered the venue earlier, choosing to sit in a corner with Skye, sipping wine. However,

Skye had been consuming one glass after another, looking gloomy.

Sheena was puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Who upset you now?”

Skye pouted in frustration, “Elliot!”

Sheena found it strange. “You haven’t even talked to him since you came to Svelton, right? How did he manage to upset you?”

“He hijacked you before I reached the legal marrying age. Now, with the business alliance between the Jenkins and Lawson families, I probably won’t have a chance with you in my entire life!”

Sheena chuckled and playfully flicked his forehead. “What are you thinking? It’s hopeless between us even if I weren’t engaged to him. I don’t like younger guys!”

Skye grumbled. “You’re lying. You said you quite liked me before!”

Sheena sighed, admitting, “You silly boy. I like you as a friend and treat you like a younger brother, not romantically. Don’t harbor such thoughts, or I’ll have to keep my distance from you, and our friendship will suffer.”

“Please don’t!” Skye downed the red wine in his glass, consoling himself, “Although I won’t have the luck to marry you in this lifetime, being your confidant is not bad either.”

Sheena chuckled at his response, shaking her head in resignation. After sitting in the quiet corner without seeing Elliot, she decided to use it as an excuse to leave her seat.

“I’m going to the restroom. I’ll be back soon.”

Meanwhile, Elliot and Sheila had just finished a round of socializing by the fountain pool in the hotel garden.

She immediately coquettishly called out, “Mr. Jenkins, how was my n

earlier? Are you satisfied?”

Elliot’s icy expression remained unchanged. “It’s fine.”

Those two words made her smile like a child who had just received candy.

Fine equaled good.

Rounded up, that meant he was satisfied.

Elliot finally complimented her!

in socializing

Her face lit up with happiness. “Could you accompany me to find a quiet place to sit? Standing and talking for so long is a bit tiring.”

Elliot glanced at her twelve–centimeter–high heels and agreed. Soon, the two walked on the garden’s pebble path.

The surroundings were quiet, the dim lights creating an ambiguous atmosphere around them.

Elliot walked in silence, hands in his trouser pockets, exuding arrogance. As long as Sheila did not speak, he would not initiate a conversation.

They walked slowly, and the atmosphere became oddly quiet.

Sheila pondered on what topic to bring up, but the pebble path was uneven, and suddenly, she misstepped, losing her balance.

“Oops!”

Instinctively, she leaned toward Elliot. Almost as if by reflex, Elliot took a step back, and Sheila did not even touch the hem of his clothes.

Just as it seemed she was about to fall flat, Elliot reached out and steadied her.
